This is my concept that I feel evokes confidence in a thought of never blending in. The theme and title is "ISTANDOUT" that was designed to highlight the 2014 Lexus IS 250 F Sport exterior features while carefully choosing modifications that is executable within the 10-week build period.

Design Notes:- A Teal Blue with Gloss Black 2-tone paint scheme following the lines and accentuating the contours of the body. No Body Kit needed.- Custom Fender vents achieved with an IS-F -inspired cut in the Factory OEM fenders.- Lowered stance via an Air Suspension System that can adjust the ride height accordingly.- Blacked-out all the chrome parts and trims.- Big Brake kit with Calipers painted to match the Teal Blue body.- Split 5-spoke wheel designed finished in Gloss Black with Teal Blue pinstripe.

Additional Notes:- Created in Photoshop CS5- Base Lexus IS 250 F Sport images from the provided asset were used and modified.- My own photograph of the wheels were used and modified.- Background elements were created 100% from scratch.

As someone who had attended SEMA since 1996, as well as designed cars for it, this was a challenge I couldn't pass up.

I have a lot respect for your work, seen it and I'm just flat out impressed. Cant lie and as a artist, I feel as you lacked on this project. I like the paintjob and slight modifications you made but in the same time after seeing what you can create, think you could of done a lot more. I like it though and like your artwork.

Thx for your input. As the rules states, we have to design something that can be built in 10 weeks. Based on my experience working with different builders and fabricators, any custom body kit will surely take a lot of time to execute. I certainly could've done something "wilder" (widebody kit, redesign bumpers etc) but it wouldn't make sense for the scope of this project. Thx again!

Really nice work man! I like the subtle mods and how you let the paint speak for the car. Love all the other stuff on your page too. Check out my entry: papermichio.deviantart.com/art… Let me know what you think, I would love some feedback from a pro like you!

Thx! You did a great job on yours as well. Only thing I noticed that can potentially be an issue is the sponsor logos you added on the fenders. From how I understood the rules, I don't think we're allowed to use any logos aside from the ones included in the provided asset. Check the official rules just to make sure!

Dang.... Their goes my chance at wining the contest... Here is my idea. I gotta say looking at yours then looking back at mine, I wish i had spent more time on it like you did. Then again I'm just getting used to PS. I'm so Jealous Nice work! mhashish17.deviantart.com/art/…
